• #Diversity in Online & Tech Arenas – Interview w/ @DigitalSista

    Posted on August 23, 2010 by in Diversity, Socially Diverse

    *This is a repost of the latest content from the Socially Diverse Project.

    Without a doubt, this has been my favorite interview to date. I say this for a few of reasons:

    1. I had the opportunity to speak with the one and only @DigitalSistaShireen Mitchell. I am so happy that Shireen agreed to take part because she (and unknowingly a few colleagues of hers) helped generate the first spark of the idea that became the Socially Diverse project.
    2. Aside from being a great person to chat with in DC, Shireen is a truly accomplished individual and is starting get recognized for the decades of work that she has done in the space. I’m glad that I can introduce her to some of you.
    3. I decided to hold onto the video clips for a bit and really get acquainted with some of the features in iMovie. Check out the video below. Let me know what you think about Shireen’s comments and the little tech upgrade I made via the video!

    Hope you enjoyed the interview! Please let me know what you think.

    Also, in case you were interested in checking out the recommendations that Shireen made regarding the next generation of women of color in tech, here they are:
